Mexican drug kingpin continues to display his Spurs T-shirt to the world

Ladies and gentlemen, your cover for the 2010-11 San Antonio Spurs media guide. We mentioned this on Tuesday, but the nightmare continues for the Spurs organization, who have to be wondering why the Mexican authorities couldn’t have let drug cartel leader Sergio Villarreal Barragan change his shirt for this photo op. Perhaps slip on an Old Navy jersey crew neck? Barragan, former leader of the Beltran-Leyva drug cartel, was captured in a raid of his compound on Sunday. Today, the inevitable posed photo with the confiscated loot.
That came a little over two weeks after the Aug. 30 arrest of his rival, Edgar Valdez Villarreal, a U.S.-born trafficker known as “La Barbie,” who also gave up when stopped by police.
He is rumored to have been wearing this.
